Running round the fountains in Trafalgar Square - George Formby

I tried not to use one, as I like having individual pedals that I can adjust on the fly if I need to, but realistically, some of the dep work so do uses synth bass sounds, so it’s just easier to store a patch that turn on a compressor, octaver, filter and chorus at the same time, and allows for different patch variations to be saved ( slower or faster filter sweep, depending on tempo), so I’m all in. I still use a lot of analogue pedals though; the overdrives just ‘feel’ better from a playing perspective.

Everybody’s free - Rozalla

What was going through their mind? Lysergic acid diethylamide, and lots of it.

Dancing in the moonlight- Thin Lizzy

The fact that the XLR output is working means that the preamp is probably OK. The problem is probably your power amp stage - are these valve or solid state power stage?

My personal favourite is the chunk systems Agent 00Funk.

You might say that, I couldn't possibly comment.

Morrissey is a twunt, that’s understood. Andy Rourke was a cellist before being a bass player, so I reckon that’s where to melodic side of his playing came from. I met him once. We did not get on.

first off, best wishes for a full and speedy recovery to your skinny-stringed comrade. Nirvana stuff?

And with enough delay it’ll last well into the night too!

Wash yer ‘ands yer filthy pig! 😄

Erm, a DI box is a cable adapter… 😄

Jesus!

I’d plump for a cable, but definitely longer than the one above, with a right angled TRS jack plug just in case it gets bumped. Your sound / recording engineer won’t thank you if it gets knocked out by accident because it’s a 2” long metal plug sticking out of your amp like a chapel coat peg.

This, on the other hand, is a thing of beauty… Les Claypool’s ‘Rainbow’ 6 string fretless Carl Thompson.

I always loved this, even before I’d heard the album. Not sure I’d pay money for it though.

Lemmy’s ‘Rickenbastard’ has to be one of the most iconic basses ever.

Nowhere Fast - The Smiths

I did this to my P bitsa, but put the MM in the sweet spot, and made the P pickup a reverse P. I made a stingray preamp but mounted it in a pedal, as I’ve got passive MMS in other basses too.

I'll combine both of yours into: The Queen is Dead - the Smiths.

I like to have a play with this: http://www.ysw-tct.com/kisekae/cnv_common_mv/ss.aspx?p1=PB&lng=E before changing anything, it’s a useful toy for making mock ups before committing to buying or routing anything new.

Every intro on ‘Roxy and elsewhere’ by Zappa, especially ‘penguin in bondage’ and ‘cheepnis’.

I use my ms60b for chorus and phaser (and synth patches) but the octaver isn’t great; the pitch shift set to an octave down is better.
